[Opinions] Re: "celebrity baby"
in reply to a message by A
Overall, good.
I slightly prefer Alexandra to Alexandria. But Alexandra and Alexander have been so popular that I have become so sick of the nickname Alex. Pretty much to the point that I can't really endorse their use any longer---if someone who was expecting came up to me and asked if they should name the baby Alexandra or Alexander I would so have to say "No", even though I really do love both names.
I like Athena -- if my first grandson had been a girl, this would have been her name.
Pushing the over-popularity of Alexandra aside (and everything about its popularity applies to Alexandria as well), it's good. I'm fine with twins having names that start with the same letter -- it's just matchy enough for twins without being overly so.
